I have an MSI GE72VR apache pro, GTX 1060 and an intel i7-7700HQ and am having really bad frame rate issues. I have 3gb video memory, 16GB DDR4-2400MHz, 128GB SSD + a 1TB HDD.

I got the laptop 5 months ago and was always able to get between 60-120 frames on every game on high or ultra settings and now I can no longer play on high or ultra without getting very bad lag and frame rate problems. I can't go past 50 frames anymore lately. Any ideas on what to do? I also ran user benchmark and got these results.

UserBenchmarks: Game 59%, Desk 64%, Work 48%
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700HQ - 70.2%
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 (Mobile) - 62.2%
SSD: Kingston RBU-SNS8152S3128GG6 128GB - 66.3%
HDD: HGST Travelstar 7K1000 2.5" 1TB - 52.5%
RAM: Hynix HMA81GS6AFR8N-UH 2x8GB - 65.9%
MBD: MSI MS-179B


Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am new to PC gaming so I don't know really how to fix all of this yet. Also I only changed one option in the Nvidia control panel and it was the Vsync option, I turned it off.

Thanks for replying! My temperatures on every game that I start up go up between 90c and 93c but it never goes past 93. Its all kinds of games from Battlefield 1, to Overwatch, to single player story games like Hellblade, Skyrim, tomb raider or the evil within and even a game that is small like 7 days to die that has very low graphics and even TellTale games. Every game makes my laptop hot. I have alot of games in my steam library and all of them lose frames very badly lately. Also I don't use the laptop for anything but gaming so there are no malware or viruses. All of my drivers are updated as well.
